There are several reasons why monotheism was unusual in its time and place, but the main reason is that the major cultures such as Greece had been polytheistic.

In the historical establishment of any of the three monotheistic religions, there was always resistance, and the monotheism alone was perceived as something unusual. Beginning from Moses, through Jesus and his followers, to Muhammad, they were all accepted with reserve and were considered crazy by the majority. One of the reasons is that they were accustomed to the existing trade and lifestyle system, and the phenomenon of monotheism has shaken the trade system. Let us remember the Jews who made golden calf,  merchants in Solomon's temple, or merchants from Mecca. The inert attitude of the people towards the new monotheism is influenced by the already existing polytheistic environment, the practical use of idols and gods, for harvest, rain, fertility, wars, etc. Another assumption that influences a heavy change in attitude in people is how they can believe in God who is invisible.

Fort Sumter was a turning point in the Civil War because __________.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer: it represented the final chance for a lasting reconciliation between Union and Confederate forces on Southern soil

Explanation:

Fort Sumter guarded the harbor at Charleston, South Carolina, and was commanded by the Unionist Major Robert Anderson. Secessionists forces demanded total withdrawal of federal forces from the fort. Lincoln understood that giving up on Fort Sumter would be giving up the Union. He ordered the resupply of the Fort, but President Jefferson Davis and his Confederates decided to not follow Lincoln's decision.  At four-thirty on the morning of April 12, the Confederate shelling of Fort Sumter began. And after 36 hours of crossfire, the Unionists lowered the flag on April 13. The fall of Fort Sumter started the Civil War and ignited a wave of bravado across the Confederate states. The guns of Charleston signaled the end of the waiting game.
